FAQ

Questions from garages & automotive

Does it work with our garage management system?

Narvin books directly into Google Calendar, and a post-call webhook can pass each booking — registration, vehicle, work requested and contact details — to other systems. Talk to us about your setup and we will suggest the simplest route.

Can it tell customers when their car is ready?

Only if it can see job status. Out of the box the agent takes a message and the workshop calls back. Garages that want live progress updates can connect their system through a custom API tool, which we can scope with you.
